Jaycee Park

i love this park, i live right next to it and walk here mostly all the time to hangout, eat, play, AND MANY MORE STUFF... this was my only childhood park since i always lived right next to it my whole life and always love going to this park, SOME THINGS THAT BOTHER ME ARE HOW MUCH HOMELESS PEOPLE THERE ARE AND I KINDA FEEL UNSAFE BCUZ OF THEM.... THERES MANY CRAZY HOMELESS PEOPLE AND FIGHTS SOMETIMES HAPPEN and many homeless people harassed me and my friends when we were minding our own business?? some guy even threatened to call the police on ME and MY friends for doing absolutely NOTHING. and sometimes the picnic areas where u eat are mostly trashed and smell BAD. the water park doesnt work (i think) from what i see when i sometimes walk around nearby it. i mostly hang around the playground area which is really fun for a hangout with friends.. the kids playground has BIRD POOP all over its floor, its not pleasant to hang out there for me and my friends. MY FAVORITE AREA AT THE PARK TO HANGOUT WITH MY FRIENDS IS THE TABLE NEXT TO THE WATER FOUNTAIN AND THE BATHROOM!!! its so fun sitting there, since we get a view of the soccer field and it feels like were up on a hill, i love that spot, especially when im listening to music and drawing/OR doing other stuff, like talking (having deep conversations) that spot carries memories for me.

The Skate Park is pretty nice except the flat on the ramps are 1 foot, gives you a lil over 2 inches to balance, nice box/sets. The pickleball Ct. is a complete failure, the contractor didn't level the courts so 2 courts is a small lake. Stay away from the NW of the park and the bathrooms (ppl shooting up).

The water for the splash pad has not yet been turned on for the season (or at least it didn't work) and the restrooms are still fenced off and inaccessible. The place was still pretty busy with lots of families and people enjoying the shade, though. We were super bummed about the water and lack of facilities but still threw the ball around until one of us had to go pee.

This park has alot of trash, everywhere. Homeless are on all the picnic areas and in the restrooms. It smells like trash everywhere. The turf fields are not well maintained, but functional for playing. The smell of weed surrounding the park is prominent.

This place was great for the kids and family just to have a nice summer relaxing day 😁! There was a lot of homeless people though make sure to bring some pepper spray 😱😰 me and my gf were flashed by a homeless man with no care, but apart from that the park was great for the kiddos and family bonding time ❤️
